The Hot Spot Page #5

Synopsis: When the drifter Harry Madox reaches a small town in Texas, he gets a job as used car salesman with the dealer George Harshaw and settles down in a hotel room. During a fire, Harry observes that the local bank is left empty and open without any security. Soon he plots a scheme to rob the bank, provoking a fire in his room to distract the employees. When Harry meets George's wife Dolly Harshaw, the easy woman teases him and they have sex. Harry becomes the prime suspect of the bank heist and is arrested, but Dolly provides the necessary alibi to release him and then blackmails him into having a love affair with her. However, Harry falls in love with Gloria Harper, who works as an accountant at the dealership. He discovers that Gloria is being blackmailed by the despicable Frank Sutton, and he decides to press Sutton.

You are crazy.

(Mrs Harper laughs)

What about your husband?

Oh...

Wanna look at mine?

You can come up real close

and get a real good look.

That was more fun

than eatin' cotton candy barefoot.

lt's late. l gotta go.

ls it late, Harry?

(Harry) Oh, God.

Got a light?

(clock chimes)

(# "Wallflower Waltz" by kd lang)

Hey! Home for lunch, back at two.

(Gulick)

Now, y'all come over here. Come on!

This one here is my personal favourite.

Never mind this door bein' open.

l'm just airin' out the back seat.

(clock chimes)

Climb up in there and have a look at

the size of that seat. lt's absolutely huge.

(Gulick) You could have half a dozen

kids in there. You'd lose half of 'em.

Don't you love a big seat? l know l do.

(sirens)

Lon, l'm gonna go check out the fire.

(bank manager)

l'll give you the combination number.

Just don't kill me.

Hey! Help!

Help! Help!

Oh, God! Somebody help me!

F***.

Hose me down! Hose me down!

Who the hell is he?

(cheering)

Are you all right, Mort?

He didn't hurt you?

(man) And in thee shall all families

of the earth be blessed.

He was driven to part from all men.

So Abram departed, as the Lord had

spoken unto him; and Lot went with him:

And Abram was 70 and five...

Should l let Spunky go?

He likes to chase rabbits.

Sure, why not?

Even rabbits deserve

a good laugh now and then.

lt's beautiful, isn't it?

Yes, it is.

Oh, watch it, watch it!

Thank you.

Harry.

Do you wanna see my birthday cake?

lt's your birthday? Seriously?

Well!

How old are you?

l'm 19.

Well.

You look disappointed.

Did you want me to be older?

No, of course not.

That'd be stupid, wouldn't it?

l'm 36.

Well.

Have a sandwich, you poor old man.

You have to keep up your strength.

Nice.

Thank you.
